This little book about reading is adorable! Rocket is a cute little dog who is taught to read by a sweet yellow bird. Rocket's journey to reading mirrors those of young readers. This would be the perfect book for those young readers to listen to and then learn to read themselves. I also think it would be great for a reading pals session where the kids come and read to dogs. What better book to read to a dog than a book about a dog who reads? This is a sweet little story and a great book about learning to read that never feels too lesson-y. Readers will relate and maybe even without realizing they are relating to Rocket's story. I plan on tucking this one away on my great picture books to give as gifts list. There really is nothing better than dogs and books!
